Shen Hanxing paused for a moment. The smile on her face widened. Her bright eyes were shining with extreme coldness as she said, “Just wait, my revenge is about to begin…”
The sound of Shen Hanxing’s footsteps gradually faded away. Lu Shaoyang was lying on the ground and staring blankly at the white ceiling. He could not understand. How could things progress to this point? Shen Hanxing looked at him with eyes full of coldness. There was neither love nor hate. He seemed to be just an insignificant and annoying bug that she would easily fan off.
Lu Shaoyang covered his eyes, clenched his fists, and punched the ground hard. He groaned and let out a sound like the roar of a trapped beast. Seeing Shen Hanxing return to the banquet hall, Su Ling came out to check on the situation. She became panicked when she saw this scene and hurriedly helped Lu Shaoyang up. “Brother Shaoyang, what happened to you? Why are you lying here? What did Shen Hanxing do to you?” She could not help but clench her teeth as she looked around. Could it be that Shen Hanxing called someone over to beat up Lu Shaoyang? Su Ling had never seen Shen Hanxing acting ruthlessly, so she had never thought that Lu Shaoyang was beaten up by Shen Hanxing.
“Su Ling, do you think I was wrong?” Lu Shaoyang went a little crazy. He gripped Su Ling’s wrist tightly and asked, “Do you think I did something wrong?”
“Brother Shaoyang, what are you talking about?” Su Ling had been pampered since she was young. She could not help but cry out in pain. She said in a low voice, “Brother Shaoyang, you’re hurting me so much. Be gentle. I don’t know what you’re talking about.”!!
“Should I not compromise and agree with my parents?” Lu Shaoyang smiled miserably. He clutched his chest in pain and continued, “My heart hurts so much. Su Ling, I feel terribly bad…” He began thinking what if he had not promised his parents to hold the engagement party? He should not have listened to his parents and joined the Su family through marriage. That must be the case. He wouldn’t believe that Shen Hanxing did not like him anymore. How could Shen Hanxing not like him? When she was young, she had always followed behind him and called him Brother Shaoyang. She even said that she would be his bride when she grew up… Hanxing would not hate him. If she hated him, she would not have come to the engagement party. She must be so angry about his engagement, so she said so many hurtful words.
Lu Shaoyang’s painful mood was somewhat relieved. His exhausted body seemed to have been revived again. He forced himself to sit up and said, “I know what I have to do. Alright!” As he said that, Lu Shaoyang looked at Su Ling whose eyes went teary. He gave her a tight hug. “Su Ling, forgive me.”
Lu Shaoyang had a pleasant scent on him. Su Ling felt uneasy because of Lu Shaoyang’s words initially. When Lu Shaoyang took the initiative to hug her, the uneasiness in her heart instantly dissipated. She suddenly felt embarrassed. She thought that Lu Shaoyang was apologizing for hurting her. Biting her lips, she answered shyly, “Brother Shaoyang, no worries. We will be a family soon. You don’t have to be so polite with me.” As she spoke, she wanted to reach out and grab Lu Shaoyang’s hand. Unfortunately, Lu Shaoyang ignored the sweet look on Su Ling’s face. Immersed in his own thoughts, he suddenly stood up and left.
“Brother Shaoyang, wait for me!” Su Ling was shy and helpless. She chased after Lu Shaoyang and grabbed his hand. “I’m wearing high heels. I can’t walk fast.”
Lu Shaoyang looked at Su Ling and thought about his upcoming plan. He began to feel guilty and nodded. “Okay, I’ll go slower.”
Shen Hanxing returned to the banquet hall. She spotted Ji Yan instantly. He was dressed in a suit with a cold expression on his face. He was in the midst of a conversation among a group of people.
Ji Yan noticed Shen Hanxing’s gaze and instantly looked over. When he saw Shen Hanxing, his expression immediately became gentle. Shen Hanxing waved at Ji Yan and indicated that she was heading to a quieter place. Then, she turned around and left with a faint smile. Ji Yan subconsciously wanted to chase after Shen Hanxing, but he was distracted by the people around him and couldn’t excuse himself right away.
Shen Hanxing carefully avoided the crowd and headed to a quiet corner for a break. When she turned around, a nice fragrance came to her nose as she suddenly bumped into a soft body.
“Ah, I’m sorry.” The woman was tall and slender. She had wavy hair, fiery red lips, and a sexy figure. When she realized that she had bumped into someone else, the woman apologized politely, “I was on the phone with my boyfriend. I didn’t know where I was going. I’m sorry, I didn’t hurt you, did I?”
